The following is a general outline of the main features of the SC827 server chassis.
System Power
Each SC827 chassis model includes a high-ef ciency 80-plus Platinum certi ed
power supply, rated at 1620 Watts plus one redundant backup power supply.
In the unlikely event your power supply fails, replacement is simple and can be
accomplished without tools.
SAS/SATA Subsystem
The SC827 supports up to twelve (12) 3.5" hot-swap SAS/SATA drives in trays
(3 for each node). These drives are hot-swappable units and are connected to a
backplane that provides power and control.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-
swap capability of the drives.
Front Control Panel
SC827HQ-R1620B chassis includes four front panels on the handles of the chassis
which control each of the systems. Each control panel on the SUPERSERVER
6027TR-H70QRF/H70FRF/H70RF provides you with system monitoring and control
for one server node. LEDs indicate system power, HDD activity, network activity,
system overheat and power supply failure. A main power button and a system reset
button are also included.

or the serverboards. If not powered from the backpane, the SC827HQ-R1620B
model chassis powers four fans from four motherboards, so that when one of the
motherboard drawers is removed, the other motherboards will continue running
all fans.
1-5
Chapter 1: Introduction
Air Shrouds
The SC827 chassis includes four plastic air shrouds that direct the air ow where
cooling is needed on each serverboard. Always use the air shroud included with
your chassis on each serverboard.
Mounting Rails
The SC827 includes a set of quick-release rails, and can be placed in a rack for
secure storage and use. To setup your rack, follow the step-by-step instructions
included in this manual.
1-4 Advanced Power Management
Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM)
The Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (IPNM) provides your system with
real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy ef ciency.
Although IPNM Speci cation Version 1.5 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard
Management Controller), your system must also have IPNM-compatible
Manageability Engine (ME) rmware installed to use this feature.
Manageability Engine (ME)
The Manageability Engine, which is an ARC controller embedded in the IOH (I/O
Hub), provides Server Platform Services (SPS) to your system. The services
provided by SPS are different from those proveded by the ME on client platforms.

1-6 2U Twin
2
: System Notes
As a 2U Twin
2
con guration, the SuperServer 6027TR-H70QRF/H70FRF/H70RF is
a unique server system. With four system boards incorporated into a single chassis
acting as four separate nodes, there are several points you should keep in mind.
Nodes
Each of the four serverboards act as a separate node in the system. As independant
nodes, each may be powered off and on without affecting the others. In addition,
each node is a hot-swappable unit that may be removed from the rear of the chassis.
The nodes are connected to the server backplane by means of an adapter card.
Note: A guide pin is located between the upper and lower nodes on the inner chassis
wall. This guide pin also acts as a “stop” when a node is fully installed. If too much
force is used when inserting a node this pin may break off. Take care to slowly slide
a node in until you hear the “click” of the locking tab seating itself.
System Power
Dual 1620 Watt power supplies are used to provide the power for all four
serverboards. Each serverboard however, can be shut down independently of the
other with the power button on its own control panel.
SAS/SATA Backplane/Drives
As a system, the SuperServer 6027TR-H70QRF/H70FRF/H70RF supports the use
of twelve SAS/SATA drives. A single SAS/SATA backplane works to apply system-
based control for power and fan speed functions, yet at the same time logically
connects a set of three SAS/SATA drives to each serverboard. Consequently, RAID
setup is limited to a three-drive scheme (RAID cannot be spread across all twelve
drives). See the Drive Bay Installation/Removal section in Chapter 6 for the logical
hard drive and node con guration.

Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer
6027TR-H70QRF/H70FRF/H70RF up and running. Following these steps in the
order given should enable you to have the system operational within a minimum
amount of time. This quick setup assumes that your system has come to you with the
processors and memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated
with a serverboard, processors, system memory etc., please turn to the chapter or
section noted in each step for details on installing speci c components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 6027TR-H70QRF/H70FRF/H70RF was
shipped in and note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage
you should le a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the SuperServer
6027TR-H70QRF/H70FRF/H70RF. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area
that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic
elds are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet.
Read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the SuperServer 6027TR-H70QRF/H70FRF/H70RF was shipped in should
include two sets of rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting
screws you will need to install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the
order given to complete the installation process in a minimum amount of time.

2-4 Cautions!
Choosing a Setup Location
Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door
completely (~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back
of the rack to allow for suf cient air ow and ease in servicing.
This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated
equipment rooms, service closets and the like).
This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices
acccording to §2 of the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.
Rack Precautions
Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to
the oor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.
In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multiple
rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the
rack.
You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more
simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
Server Precautions
Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.
Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the
rails.
Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack rst, and then
work up.
Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from
power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a
power failure.
Allow any hot plug drives and power supply modules to cool before touching
them.
Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.
